Nah, the bloom is what you want to retain. However, I do wash them off just prior to using them if there's any visible dirt, as I don't want to knock it off into whatever I'm preparing. I don't bother if there's nothing to get knocked off, though.Depends on what you are going to do with them, and how dirty they are. If you're selling them for eating, people will want clean eggs. If for your own eating, then I don't. Ones that then hens pooped in the nest...those are dog food, or chicken food. If you're incubating, you don't want to wash them, if you can help it. A rub with a dry scrubby will get most, but not too much rubbing should be done.
Hollow, I try to sell enough to help pay for the feed and upkeep items. Not looking to make a killing with them. I usually try to give some away to neighbors to help try and keep the peace. lol. I realize that I need to have them clean of poo and such, but just wondering if I should wash them to get the bloom off.
